This SHACMAN 6x4 tractor truck is an F3000 model coded SX4255J1324, the highest-output unit in the range, built around a 500 HP WP13.500E201 Euro II engine and a Fast 12JSDX220TB 12-speed manual gearbox. Its 16-tonne wheel-side double-reduction tandem axles run a 5.92 ratio for maximum tractive effort at a 120-tonne gross combination weight.

500 HP and a 5.92 Ratio for the Heaviest Pulls

This is the most powerful SHACMAN 6x4 tractor truck in the family, and the spec backs it up. The WP13.500E201 delivers 500 HP through a 12JSDX220TB gearbox with 12 forward and 2 reverse gears, while the 5.92 final drive is the deepest ratio offered — a deliberate choice for maximum wheel force at crawling speed. Together they are aimed at the hardest jobs on a heavy haul fleet: oversized loads, lowboy moves and mine ramp climbs where a combination has to be dragged into motion rather than driven. Top speed is governed at 75 km/h, a realistic ceiling for a truck built to move mountains slowly.

Wheel-Side Double-Reduction Axles and a Three-Layer Frame

Where some heavy tractor trucks use a standard double-reduction axle, this unit runs 16-tonne wheel-side double-reduction tandem rear axles behind a 9.5-tonne extra-heavy front axle. Wheel-side reduction moves the final gear step into the hub, cutting torque load on the half-shafts — the right architecture for the repeated shock loads of mine and plant haulage. The frame is an 850 x 300 (8+7), 15 mm three-layer ladder on multi-leaf springs, holding kerb weight at 8,500 kg against a 120-tonne rating, with 12.00R20 mining wire tyres and a 90# reinforced saddle.

Heavy-Duty Protection, Cab and Options

This heavy tractor carries a 5 mm reinforced steel bumper with headlamp protection grilles and can be specified with ABS. The F3000 cab is offered as a flat-roof single-bunk (3,300 mm) or a high-roof double-bunk (3,800 mm) version with a hydraulic seat and hydraulic cab mounting for long shifts over rough ground. Buyers may also request a 50# standard saddle in place of the 90# unit, an oil-bath desert air filter and fleet VI paint.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this SHACMAN 6x4 tractor truck the flagship build?

It pairs a 500 HP WP13.500E201 engine with a 5.92 ratio and 16-tonne wheel-side double-reduction rear axles, the highest output and deepest ratio in the range.

Why use a 5.92 ratio on this SHACMAN tractor truck?

A 5.92 final drive is the deepest ratio offered. It maximises wheel force at crawling speed for oversized loads and mine ramp climbs rather than top speed.

What are wheel-side double-reduction axles on this heavy tractor truck?

Wheel-side reduction puts the final gear step in the hub, cutting torque load on the half-shafts. That suits the repeated shock loads of mine and plant haulage.

Can this 120-tonne tractor truck be customised?

Yes. High-roof cab, 50# saddle in place of the 90# unit, oil-bath desert air filter, ABS and fleet VI paint are available. Tell us the load and route before quoting.
